'14 428i M-Sport, '02 C32 AMG
2002 C32 AMG - Brabus / HRE / Eisenmann / Pullied
Hey guys,
I’m finally selling my car. It’s a 2002 model, with 59k miles. While the car is in Norcal, and I’m in school in Socal, I don’t drive the car much. It’s been driven fewer than 10k miles a year average in its time.
Overview:
The car is black with black interior, and was well-optioned from the factory. Sticker was over $57k, as it included navigation, heated seats, rain sensors, ski-sack with passthrough, etc. The interior is in good condition. I don’t smoke, and the car has always had its own garaged parking spot. I am the second owner, and my family owns the title free and clear. There are no liens on the car. No accidents, and it has not been tracked. The car has several modifications on it, but I will also include the stock wheels (on Toyo T1-S tires).
Modifications:
I’ve also had several modifications done to the car.
ASP Overdrive Pullies (I’d estimate it has about 380hp, and similar torque numbers)
Brabus Front Bumper
Color Coded Black Grille
Eisenmann Race Exhaust (2 x 83mm round)
H&R Coilovers
OEM Bixenon Headlights w/ 8000K HID
OEM Euro Impact Strips
2005 Accessories OEM Trunklid Spoiler
2005 Foglights w/ 8000K HID
W211 Mirror Turn Signals
HRE 545R Wheels (powdercoated gloss black w/ polish lips) - 19 x 8.5 (front), 19 x 9.5 (rear)
Condition:
The car has 59k miles, which is fairly low for a 2002 model. It has some natural wear and tear, like a few rock chips / scratches on the front bumper, and some scratches on the rear bumper. The front left and rear left wheels have slight bends on the outer part of the rim. The wheels also have some slight nicks.
Preventative Maintenance:
I’ve invested much to have the car prepared for a new owner. Recently, I’ve had “service B” performed, including replacing the transmission and brake fluids, air filters, etc. Its brake pads have recently been replaced, and I’ve taken care of several of the issues that w203 owners face (power steering pump, power seat modules). I’ve had a new power steering pump / air pump installed, upgraded with a new intercooler pump (from the SVT lightning which is larger capacity and a direct bolt on), and installed a new pulley tensioner bearing to accommodate the upgraded pulley system. In the next few days, two brand new power seat modules will be installed, replacing the driver and passenger seat units. I’ve invested much in preventative maintenance so that the new owner won’t have to deal with these common issues.
Pricing:
Bluebook for good condition is $19,700. I’ve spent about $15k in parts and preventative maintenance (like the seat modules). I’m aware that I can’t recoup most of my investment, but I think that $26,000 is a fair price given how much I’ve put into it and it’s condition.
The car is located in the San Francisco Bay Area. My email is kyee87@yahoo.com. Thanks!

Your car looks great but I am sad to tell you it wont sell for anymore than 20k if your lucky. Good luck with the sale. I have been trying to sell my 02 C32 for some time and its looking grim on what I mite have to settle for.

An '02 with 60K on the clock could never bring 26k today. All of the modifications that you added probably detract from the car's value rather than add on (except the wheels ofcourse). You may be better off to part out and lower the price to a more realistic range like mid teens. Don't mean to offend, just my realistic .02 with today's market.
p.s. It looks incredible and those are tasteful mods.

if it still had the original AMG C32 front bumper and original exhaust, I'd buy it for $19K.

the leather's still in very good condition. i think it's pretty clean inside too, no snags or rips or stuff like that. almost no one ever really rode in the back seats as well.
